When Familiarity Kicks In

For the times you want to stay on track and are struggling too.

I’ve gotten in the habit of asking myself when I reach for something that goes against my goals if this is coming from love or another place? If it’s coming from love, chances are the action is furthering me along to where I want to go. If it’s coming from desperation or the impulse to feel good in the moment, then I have to give myself the space to understand and move past it.

By asking myself this simple yet powerful question I am able to align with with my intentions for the day, which ultimately tie back to what’s important to me. The next time you are tempted to skip your workout or skip your meditation ask yourself if your action is coming from a place of love for yourself or is a residual behavior that you are trying to kick? Sometimes, we fall back into old patterns simply because they are familiar.
